Like many of us, even India shuttler Saina Nehwal seems to be a fan of cartoon character Mickey Mouse, which turned 90 on November 18, the day Mickey appeared on screen in cartoon Steamboat Willie.

Saina was very happy receiving a personalised tee of Mickey as gift. Yesterday, she posted this picture on her Twitter handle and wrote: "Thank u so much @DisneyIndia for the lovely gifts ...#90thmickeyanniversary."

The cartoon character has taken on various looks throughout the years, after first appearing as just a black and white sketch in 1928. And the seven posters, dating from the 1930s and 1940s, went on display at a commemorative exhibition in London recently.
